Apple cinnamon oatmeal bars have an oatmeal crumb base, soft cinnamon apple centre, and a crumb top. It tasted just like an apple crisp!
I love these bars because they make a perfect snack or quick on the go breakfast. They easy to make, taste amazing, and are a perfect way to use up those apple sitting in your fridge.
Easy to Make– The recipe comes together so easily and is mixed by hand.
Basic Ingredients – The recipe uses common household ingredients so no need to make a large expensive grocery store trip.
Amazing texture- It has a chewy oatmeal cookie like base, soft apple cinnamon in the middle, and topped with a crunchy crumble.
They taste so good– They taste just like apple crisp. We all know the best part of apple crips is the oat crumble, these bars have a base and topping made out of the ingredients.
Preheat oven to 375F and line a square 9×9 baking pan with parchment paper.
Peel and thinly slice your apples and set aside in a medium sized mixing bowl.
In a large bowl whisk together the rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Next, add the melted butter into the dry ingredients and mix till everything is combined. It will have crumbly texture.
Set aside 1/2 C of the crumb mixture and pour the rest into your pan. Then, evenly press the crumb mixture down with your hands to form a solid crust.
To the sliced apples add in the white sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, and lemon juice. Mix well to coat all the apple slices. Spread the apple mixture over the crumb base in your pan.
Top with the remaining 1/2 of crumb mixture you set aside. You just want to sprinkle it above the apples.
Bake for 28 minutes or the edges are golden brown. Let fully cool to room temperature in the pan before cutting into bars.
It is important to let the bars fully cool in the pan to room temperature before removing them and slicing. The bars need time to stiffen up. If you try and slice them before they cool they’ll fall apart.
You can you any type of apple you like! I have made it with baking apples and non baking apples it it works great with both varieties. The latest version (the one I made for the process photos) I used MacIntosh apples.
These bars are best served on the day they’re made. Bars should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature. If stored properly the bars keep well for three days. They still taste amazing days after baking, but the topping will start to soften.

Easy breakfast. This is one of my favourite recipes for a quick on the go breakfast.
Start by preheating the oven to 375 F and line a square 8×8 pan with parchment paper.
Next, wash and dice your strawberries and set aside in a medium sized mixing bowl.
In a large bowl whisk together the rolled oats, brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Add the melted butter into the dry ingredients and mix till everything is combined. It will have crumbly texture.
Set aside 1/2 C of crumb mixture and pour the rest into your pan. Press the crumb mixture down with your hands so it forms a solid crust. Make sure to evenly spread it across the bottom of the pan.
Next the strawberries. To the diced strawberries add in the white sugar, juice, and cornstarch. Mix until all dry ingredients are dissolved. Spread the strawberry mixture over the crumb base in your pan.
Top with the remaining 1/2 of crumb mixture you set aside. You just want to sprinkle it above the strawberries.
Bake for 28 minutes or until top and edges are golden brown. Let fully cool in the pan before cutting into bars. You can cut them into either 9 large bars or 16 smaller ones.
These bars should be stored in an airtight container at room temperature. They keep well for three days after baking.
Spooned and levelled flour refers to the way of measuring flour. To properly measure flour you should scoop spoonfuls of flour into your measuring cup and then level off the access by scraping with a knife. Scooping the measuring cup directly into your flour causes the flour to compress and you will get more flour than the recipe calls for.
You want to use rolled oats, sometimes called old fashioned oats. Using quick oats will not give the bars the correct texture .
You want to use fresh strawberries for this recipe. If you only have frozen berries you will want to bring them to room temperature before using them.
